The reason the Special General Meeting is being convened is to consider a resolution directing the Benchers to declare, pursuant to Law Society Rule 2-27(4.1), that Trinity Western University is not an approved faculty of law. A resolution passed at a general meeting is only binding on the Benchers when it complies with section 13 of the Legal Profession Act.

The transcript of the April 11 Bencher meeting regarding TWU’s law school is available for lawyers wishing to take part in the upcoming special general meeting.
